About this item
by Katie M. Debonville (Author)
A tune with familiar strains...
For Katie DeBonville, life in music began in earnest when she first picked up the flute at the age of ten. Music became the catalyst through which she learned to understand herself, the common thread woven through a life anchored in family and friendship. In this debut memoir, the author reflects on the role music has played throughout her life, from listening to Top 40 tunes as a teen in the 1980s to navigating her chosen career in a field that is music-based without being performance-based. Her discoveries-about both herself and her relationships-are universal. Grace Notes is the story of a life composed, like a piece of music, by a woman approaching her fiftieth birthday, as she goes through a time of great personal change in a world that's in flux. It's both messy and graceful, a tune with familiar strains that is ultimately a melody all its own.
